`window-state` still flickers on the startup

[1111mp]

Describe the bug

Already referenced: #2042

On the macOS platform, when using window-state, the app still flickers on every startup due to restoring the previous window position. (This does not occur in the development environment, but happens after packaging and installing the app.) The flickering is especially noticeable in a multi-monitor setup.

Reproduction

Just create an empty project using pnpm create tauri-app, then install and integrate tauri-plugin-window-state.

tauri.conf.json:

"windows": [
      {
        "title": "tauri-app",
        "width": 800,
        "height": 600,
        "visible": false // aleady had set false
      }
    ],

lib.rs:

// Learn more about Tauri commands at https://tauri.app/develop/calling-rust/
#[tauri::command]
fn greet(name: &str) -> String {
    format!("Hello, {}! You've been greeted from Rust!", name)
}

#[cfg_attr(mobile, tauri::mobile_entry_point)]
pub fn run() {
    tauri::Builder::default()
        .plugin(tauri_plugin_window_state::Builder::default().build())
        .plugin(tauri_plugin_opener::init())
        .invoke_handler(tauri::generate_handler![greet])
        .run(tauri::generate_context!())
        .expect("error while running tauri application");
}

Expected behavior

If the window is shown only after the window state has been applied and taken effect, the flickering does not occur.
